>iPhones have strict shutdown temperatures for both cold and heat. (which make them useless in many outdoor work environments) Absolutely, I'm in the middle of Saskatchewan where it can get down to -40 and this was my biggest gripe

If you don't mind hacking around and a bit of Jank, you can get the Lineage GSI working on the UniHertz Titan. Still Android, but you keep the HW Kepboard and the batterylife and build on it is insane. Not nearly as clean as stock or t

I was using it at my job when it went down. Music stopped, things weren't responding, reloaded the page and knew it wasn't coming back. I was using it way back when you could use their Java Applet to upload your music. Had my enti

With light switches and a compact layout it's not too bad for navigation. My default for arrows is LeftThumb+HJKL, so it's quicker and more natural then diving for the arrow keys. I also have overloaded alphas (Ctrl on a or ;, Shi

Check out Tim Tyler's custom microswitch keyboard, it's pretty similar to that! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9yg3s77nAMQ

That's exactly why I made Ginny (the small red keyboard in OP)! It's an exercise in insanity, but it does work as a fully functional keyboard powered by ASETNOIP. I could never daily it (too attached to my 36key GergoPlex) but som

A better solution is to just have a different physical connector so it's obvious at a glance if you have the correct cables. But that: involves carrying another cable, and kind of defeats the purpose of a unifying connector.

A few months ago I did a passthrough of Wrath Of Chronos, and it really breathed some life into Hexen. It even works for other DOOM wads and can be a fun change of pace to your standard IWAD, give it a shot if DOOM RPGs sound up your alley

I think on the right kind of switch it doesn't matter. The idea with a tactile bump is to give your fingers feedback to prevent a bottoming out, but on a lower profile switch that's just not an option (the general consensus is tha

Skip on the Helix and grab something like the Crkbd (Make sure it's a model where the outer column can snap off) or the MiniAxe, Yushakobo carries both I believe. Also check out the 'Self Made Keyboards In Japan' Discord serv

A Key2 is my daily, but there's a backup unlocked Titan running Lineage ready to take over if it dies. Now the question is, once this hardware becomes available will I still need it or will the Key2 power though. Although being able to

This sounds very similar to Xanadus concept of Transclusion, I'm kind of sad this kind of context-preserving inclusion never really made it into the modern web. But due to the nature of Xanadus fixed and versioned documents, transclusi

Stenography! When stroking a chord you can have 6+ keys held down easily. I design and write firmware for QMK powered writers/ergonomic keyboards, and NKRO is absolutely vital if you don't want to resort to serial devices [1]. Pl

You can submit jobs to JES2 from USS with a shell script. Easiest way I found was to fuse-mount a working directory, edit everything with VSCode/Vim With COBOL Extensions and have two shells, one constantly reading the output data file

I've been going over this thread wanting to comment on damn near everything, I think I'll make a blog post. In short, you nailed it. But forgot to mention abusing the power that QMK gives you for reducing reach/key stretch.

You should be using steno or some kind of briefing system. I hang out in the plover discord and bunch of the people there are over 150 on a slow day. Just need to ditch character based input, it's not easy though.
